Proliferating cell nuclear antigen
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen molecule. Molecular model of human proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA, blue, green and red), complexed with its loader protein (purple, orange, grey and maroon). PCNA is a cofactor for DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) polymerase delta, an enzyme that synthesises the new strand during DNA replication and repair. PCNA acts as a sliding clamp, helping to hold DNA polymerase delta to the DNA strand. The loader protein loads the clamp onto its DNA template strand

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) and its loader protein, providing a glimpse into the fascinating world of biology. The PCNA molecule, depicted in shades of blue, green, and red, is an essential cofactor for DNA polymerase delta – an enzyme responsible for synthesizing new strands during DNA replication and repair. In this artwork against a striking black background, the PCNA molecule acts as a sliding clamp that firmly holds DNA polymerase delta to the DNA strand. Its loader protein (depicted in purple, orange, grey, and maroon) plays a crucial role by loading the clamp onto its designated DNA template strand. The complexity and precision of these compounds are beautifully captured in this illustration from Science Photo Library. It serves as a testament to the intricacies of biological processes at a molecular level. With its detailed depiction of proteins and molecules involved in proteomics research, this image provides valuable insights into cellular mechanisms that drive life itself. As we explore this mesmerizing visual representation of PCNA's structure and function, it becomes evident how vital these compounds are for maintaining genomic integrity. This print not only celebrates scientific discovery but also ignites curiosity about our own genetic makeup and the remarkable machinery within our cells that enables life to thrive.
